this year i tried something different
went for the first time to donate blood to a patient who need to undergo an op
did the blood screening 10 days before tat
apply leave and went to the same hospital again
reaching by 7:45 am
had a quick breakfast from the my news
no starbucks but only canteen
i was the first one who reached
me and another guy were the 1st bath to donate
tat guy oredi started to donate but my turn , the young nurse guy was still helping around
he intro himself with his name, patiently bla bla bla...
basically i think only 1st timer will really hear wat he talk
my hand only started after 10 mins
half way, one of the family of the patient talked to the other guy and said : hey , she almost finish d coz the blood pack was full
hahaha okie i guess this was the result a frequent donor, only 10 to 15 mins then settle
I learned something about blood donation - many donors would prefer a male donor than a female because normally female donor they only take 350ml blood
ok my case is different coz most of the time they took 450ml which is same like male donor
so they only need 4 packets of blood if the donors are male
and they would need up to 6 packets of blood if donors are female
the reason why they would prefer male donor bcoz the chances of the blood gets rejected or negative response is higher for 6 packets (coz from 6 different persons) than 4 packets (4 donors) :)
Thanks to the gal who explained to me when I called and ask before doing any blood test
